Can't open terminal emulators on hyprland

Just installed Hyprland on arch, when I launch it with wrapper everything works but when i press super+q kitty doesn't launch. I have it installed. When I exec it from tty it says

X11: The DISPLAY environment variable is missing
GLFW initialization failed

Re: Can't open terminal emulators on hyprland

When you exec what? That looks as if whatever you've tried is looking for X, but you're using Wayland, aren't you? Hyprland is a Wayland compositor according to the description.

Kitty is suggested by Hyprland as default terminal. It is bound to super+q, but this bind doesn't work for me. Super+m, for example, closes hyprland and works fine.

Re: Can't open terminal emulators on hyprland

But what do you exec from the tty which results in the error you posted?

Try install gtk3 with `pacman -S gtk3`

Please don't necrobump.
Also where do you got the idea that kitty (silently) depends on gtk3?

Re: Can't open terminal emulators on hyprland

kitty is based on OpenGL-3.3, check it.

Re: Can't open terminal emulators on hyprland

And how does GL 3.3 depend on gtk3?

Or, if this was a general remark reg. the topic, nb. that the OP hasn't  been active since January, but I'd start by running kitty from a TTY w/ proper "WAYLAND_DISPLAY" exported and see whether it complains about anything.
